Hi,

My 6 year son started learning Table tennis. Can you please tell me what kind of practice he should do..?

Hi Parth,

The main thing is to give him plenty of hitting with control.

Find ways to entertain him while hitting.  It is important that you allow him to enjoy the game at this stage.  If you can keep him playing for the next few years you are winning.

#8 - Fast Footwork

In this session you'll focus on increasing the speed of your footwork. To do this we ask you to forget about consistency and concentrate on speed. You should be playing at a pace where you can get around 4 or 5 balls on the table. If you are getting 10 or 20 balls on then you need to up your pace again. It's important to play right to the edge of your ability to actually increase your skill level. We also continue to develop the new serve you have chosen to work on.
